I have to side with JillyBean here
Posted By: Cody Miller <cwm4584@rit.edu>Date: 5/12/05 10:07 p.m.

In Response To: Re: Context schmontext (Echoes)

: Acceptable losses, I suppose she reasonaed with herself.

: Isn't it? 6 dozen lives for millions, or billions?

: She did reflect on that idea near the end of First Strike, as we must remind
: ourselves, but Cortana was made when Halsey still had the idea of
: acceptable losses.

: A mosnter? Maybe, but a necessary evil.

If I recall, the augmentation procedure was not only BRUTAL, but had <50% success rate. More than half the patients suffered from chronic pain, nerve degeneration, paralysis, grand mal siezures, and death. Add to the fact that they were TAKEN, and mostly NOT volunteers, and I'd say this was highly immoral, even if lives are saved as a result of the Spartans Battle prowess.
